Following my recent luck in October on the Lottery and Euromillions, I was lucky again last week.

On Wednesday it was another £25 and on Friday £2.90!

I had recently seen an ad in the tv mag for a lovely padded coat with hood in a bright purply/cerise colour, from Cotton Traders and reduced from £55 to £27.50. I kept wondering whether to treat myself and send off for it but wasn't sure what size I would need. Once I had won the money I phoned through to order and asked about the sizing and if I would have to pay to return item if it didn't fit. There was also a £3.99 postage charge.

The woman said they did have a couple left in either size I wanted, but that there was an outlet for C.T. in our area. Turned out it was at a local garden centre so I phoned them and they had one in the larger size which they put aside for me.

Yesterday I picked it up, it's a perfect fit, very nice and warm and a lovely colour (bilberry with a navy lining and hood liner etc.) I am so pleased with it and happy that it cost me nothing and no postage either, just a little bit of petrol and I had 40p over to help with that lol


Keeping my fingers crossed for even more luck, then I can help lots of my pals out.

*Like* :-D

Sounds lovely Liz - well done :-)

That's really great Liz, "gud on ya girl".

If you remember about 3 weeks ago you prompted me to have a go on the lottery, and I won £107, still got the winning ticket not claimed it yet. :-D

Seeing this, and having a brill result over an attempted burglary at ours last week, you have now prompted me once again to have another go on this weeks lottery.

Ya got to ride Lady Luck once you`re sat in the saddle, aintcha just.
:-D :-D :-D

Coat sounds lovely Liz....Can I have pinch some of your luck :-D

Jules x <3

Great news Liz....... so pleased for you. Gxx

Thanks, folks.

BR, no luck last evening but I never give up hope! You should cash your ticket in, before it goes missing and definitely get another ticket this week. Good luck comes in threes, I think and I certainly had my multiples recently.

Jules, sending some luck your way and to anyone else who wants some!

Mind you, last night was rubbish, no numbers at all lol

Well done :-D It sounds lovely... nice and bright to cheer you up on dull winter days.

We also had a lotto "win" last night........ $15.20........ it cost us $25 :-D

Obviously a work in progress then Scozz lol Better luck next time.

Would you believe it? I got another £25 from Weds draw!

My luck has been good since the new higher charges were brought in for the lottery and altho it costs more I am still in profit at the mo lol


Best of luck to us all for tonight's Euromillions draw.

Great news Liz. We should start calling you Lady Luck. Enjoy it while it lasts. xx

HI LIZ
I LIKE COTTON TRADERS TOO,
WENT TO GARDEN CENTER THIS MORNING
THEY HAVE A NICE KNITTED DUFFLE COAT
MIGHT KEEP AN EYE ON IT AS THEY DO GOOD ONE OFF REDUCTIONS.

You should, Gwen, their things are always worth buying if there are reductions, I wouldn't have paid £55 for the coat as I didn't need it that much but have sorted some older ones out that I don't wear now so will pass them on to a friend who collects them for her church to donate to needy people. I did take one in September that I hadn't worn in ages.
